My overall experience with HBR has been positive although I have only been there for 3 years I felt very welcomed when I first got there everyone from other students to faculty members everyone was very kind and helpful I felt a lot more heard because of the small number of people in the school and that alowed me to develop relationships with new people and my counselors.

My High School experience at Hinckley-Big Rock High School has been OK. Getting help from teachers could be easy or difficult depending on who you talk to.

In general, it really isn't a bad school or a fantastic one but I am enjoying my time there.
